Kiss of Darkness: Part 1--A Hint of Shadow

Baeleth Dawnmist, Male High Elf Swashbuckler

“Well I can see textiles of some kind in one of the crates near the back, which isn’t quite closed...though nothing else of note,” Baeleth offers, as he turns away from the window. “Of course that could just mean they’ve thought things through and are trying to seem legitimate on the surface...”

Verra peeked her head in the window as well, curious to see if anything was going on in there. She really didn't have any skills that would help the investigation . . . but it sure was fun tagging along for the moment.

OOC: Spot +3.

*Verra doesn't notice those textiles until Baeleth points them out, though once he does, they become obvious to her sensitive elven eyes. She doesn't see anything else of import.*

Val takes a moment to look at the lock again, and sighs. "On second thought, not sure I can open this yet. Let's check out the others first. If we need to, we can find a way in."

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Oops! Simple Locks (the ones any kid can pop given time) are DC 20, and this one is DC 25 (not quite an great one, which is DC 30). Val actually can't unlock it without MW lockpicks or the aid of someone else who is trained in the skill. If it makes you feel better, all the locks in Shackled City's level 1 adventure are DC 30, and our lockpick PC had +8. DAMN YOU KEEGAN GHELVE!)

 

[Bront]

OOC: Fixed my responce then.

"Neat . . . clothes stuff," Verra replied. She looked to the others to see what they were going to do now . . . it all seemed so exciting.

“Yes we should go if you are having trouble with the lock, Valerie,” Baeleth remarks, looking to see if anyone has seen them.

 

[Bront]

"If we need to, I can probably aquire something that might help, but it will take time, as I'll need to pull a few strings. Let's get going for now."

Val takes a quick peek into the warehouse before moving on to the other one.

*It doesn't seem like anyone has noticed their lockpicking, which was only a brief attempt, but dockworkers and their ilk are eyeing the well-dressed folk standing by the warehouse a bit oddly.*

*They head over to the other warehouse and see longshoremen hard at work lugging crates from the piers over to the warehouse. The crates are mostly sealed pretty well, but the medley of sweet smells and spices coming from a few of the crates indicates that there are various foodstuffs stored within.*
